That's a very cool idea! Did the link fit the mount or did you make the mounts?

how do you mean? the small side fit right in the tlt link mount with a couple of washers to fill the gap the spring fit in the wide end with a little persuasion but there are wider chains available the the ones i have lying around the house. i did have to shave the tlt link a bit though

IT looks good. That's a double shackle not a revolver. Revolvers twist, to relieve the tension in the spring. As well as drop like that. |

You might also won't add some type of stop to prevent it from closing the wrong way when opening and then compressing. Looks good thogh.
